75. The Book Behind Marc Andreessen’s “Anti-Introspection” Trend

This podcast is a presentation of The Meow Library. 

In a recent interview with podcaster David Senra, a16z’s Marc Andreessen claimed not only to do “zero introspection,” but dismisses introspection itself as a 20th-century contrivance. How did he come to such a radical conclusion? The Meow Library speculates it’s because of his exposure to Meow: A Novel, a novelty book containing only repetitions of the word “meow” which has gained traction among the Silicon Valley intelligentsia. In this podcast, we examine the thought process behind this book, which is surprisingly close to Andreessen’s own. 
This podcast is sustained by sales of the internationally bestselling Meow: A Novel.
